摘要
Quorum sensing(QS)system can dynamically control the expression of proteins along with the cell growth.The promoting period of QS system has been little focused on until now.In this study,a self-induced dynamic regulated expression(SIDRE)system was constructed in Escherichia coli.To enable the system suitable for the expression of enzymes,promoter engineering was used to obtain P_(luxI)mutants.To test the SIDRE system,alginate lyase AL493 and esterase Est7 were used as target protein for expression.The enzyme activity of alginate lyase and esterase reached 96.38%and 106.71%of the control strains containing the T7 promoter.In high-density fermentation,the activity of alginate lyase expressed by the SIDRE system with P_(luxI)(T-38C)as promoter was 4.34-fold of that expressed by the T7 promoter.Therefore,the P_(luxI)mutants with different promoting periods and/or different strengths show great potential in both laboratory and industrial scale for protein expression.
